| Abstract | Background and aim Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PA) induced hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (HSOS) occurred worldwide and the mortality rate remained high because there were no specific therapies. Defibrotide was effective for HSOS following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. But the pathogenesis of the two types of HSOS were not equivalent. The purpose of this study was to see if defibrotide was also effective in PA induced rat HSOS. Methods First we improved rat HSOS model by using higher dose (230 mg/kg) of monocrotaline (a kind of PA) as the dose of median lethal dose. So drug effectiveness could be assessed by survival time. Next, male SD rats were divided into 5 groups. They were control group, model group, low dose low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) treatment group, high dose LMWH treatment group and defibrotide treatment group. Rats’ survival time, liver function, white blood cell count and cytokines were compared among the groups. The DeLeve score was used to assess the severity of liver pathology. Results The model group exhibited typical liver pathology of HSOS, such as hepatic sinus dilation, congestion, endothelial injury of central lobular vein, coagulative necrosis of hepatocytes and fibrin deposition in the subendothelial. The pathologic characteristics indicated that the model was built up successfully. The survival rate was significantly higher in defibrotide group (81.8%) than model group (43.7%), while the survival rates were similar in the two LMWH groups (62.5% and 75%) and model group. The survival time only be prolonged by defibrotide (P=0.028) but not LMWH (P>0.05). DeLeve score was improved most in the defibrotide group than the two LMWH groups (both P<0.01). Changes in DeLeve score, liver function, plasma level of tumor necrosis factor α and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 exhibited the same trends. Conclusion Defibrotide could improve the outcome of monocrotaline-induced rat HSOS indicating that defibrotide might be a better choice than LMWH in clinical practice. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
